The manufacturing process for fractured rods actually diamond sizes
(honing) the rods after they are cracked. This is due to the cracking
process which deforms the crank bore, in fact the shape keeps changing
(on Ford and Jag rods) until the rods have been torqued and untorqued
several times.
>Simon asked if the rods are reconditionalbe.
Unfortunately they are not.
